Does the lariat ultimate include power/remote tailgate?
Well the window sticker for my '19 order is now available so was taking a look at it this morning:
http://www.windowsticker.forddirect....%2F5o6PIX5Q%3D
What I don't see specifically listed is the remote/power tailgate, whereas I thought on other window stickers I saw it explicitly listed ... can someone confirm what package that feature is part of? It wasn't listed as a stand alone option on the order sheet (I'm looking at that right now too). If it is not power/remote, is it at least an "easy down/up" tailgate?
Thanks!

Ultimate Lariat has power everything and power down tailgate.
No package has power "up" tailgate.
The window sticker won't go into that detail I don't think.
But yes, the tailgate actually feels very light when lifting it up.

The Lariat Ultimate includes a remote tailgate release feature. You can drop the tailgate remotely via push-button inside the cab or by using the key fob. There’s a damper with a one-way valve to control the drop. You have to “easy close” the tailgate by hand.

I Custom ordered my 2017 Lariat ultimate and the universal garage door opener was not included in the ultimate package. It was a $125 option to add it. I don't know about the newer model years though, sorry.

To answer the previous question above , mine did come with visor door opener . For this question , there are led lights mounted in the rear corners of the bed with a push button on/off switch . Hope this helps .
